[Rec] 3: Genesis
Directed by Paco Plaza
In the third installment of Paco Plaza’s [REC] series, a couple’s vows are put to the test when a demonic virus turns their wedding guests turn into rabid monsters. Clara and Koldo’s reception is going well, except for their uncle, who seems very unwell. At the party’s peak, he turns into a bloodthirsty being, and soon the guests catch the deadly disease. Can Clara and Koldo make it out alive? Or is the honeymoon over? Plaza veers away from the first two films’ style – leaving the found-footage conceit midway through and ramping up the orgy of blood, DEAD ALIVE-style.
Two newlyweds’ vows are put to the test when their wedding guests turn into rabid monsters.
Cast: Leticia Dolera, Javier Botet, Diego Martin

yes its not exactly rec but the beginning but the rest was kick ass.
Yikes, I was honestly very open to giving this movie a fair shake coming from the original 2 but they did the one thing that doesn't make any sense, they didn't RECORD! Only the beginning is shown through a mobile found footage style camera lense. The rest of the movie is shot like a regular pov and turns into a worse version of 'Ready or Not'. It's not even fun enough to ever watch again in my opinion. Skip it.
Eh, sort of ok. Again I liked the first one best. I guess I’d say this was third in line for quality. It did keep my attention throughout.
The opening up until the title card indicates the following film will be in the style of the original REC, then promptly gets rid of the found footage style. The film suffers after this. It is at times so slapstick you imagine you are watching Scary Movie's parody of REC. Other times it is cloying with how it treats the bride and groom. The horror is almost entirely derived from gore as there is little suspense or tension. Expect a very unserious splatterfest.
I very much enjoyed this one . . . . .
